I'm a fairly new Wikipedian, though a long time reader and occasional non-registered contributer. While I'm still learning all of the ins and outs of WP politics and bureaucracy, and the occasional style variation, I have a desire to contribute to this valuable resource the best I can. I have experience editing a high school newspaper for several years; granted, this is not the most auspicious resume as far as copyediting goes, but I think I have a firm grasp on English in general and fixing up poorly rendered English specifically.
I'm not claiming an doctoral knowledge in these areas but I do have some knowledge (or at least the desire to spend a great deal of time researching something if I don't) on the following:
Military History, particularly modern (i.e. post 1800)
Japan, from history to modern pop-culture or politics
US government and politics
Various others? I'm generally willing to expand my knowledge base, so if there's something I can help with, tell me and I'll make every effort to educate myself on the topic
